The Licensing, Environment & Safety Committee is scheduled to consider two applications for Private Hire Driver's licences. These applications are being brought before the committee due to previous convictions of the applicants.

Private Hire Driver Licence Applications

The committee is scheduled to review reports concerning two separate applicants for a Private Hire Driver's licence. These reports, prepared by the Director for Place Management, detail previous convictions of each applicant. The committee will be asked to consider whether each applicant is a fit and proper person to hold a Private Hire driver's licence. The officer contact for these matters is Sarah Tooth.

The committee's agenda also includes standard procedural items such as approving the minutes of the previous meeting held on 23 September 2026, declarations of interest, and reporting any urgent decisions taken since the last meeting. There will also be an opportunity for public question time, where members of the public can ask questions on matters within the committee's remit. The committee will also consider whether to exclude the public from discussions on certain agenda items, as these may contain information relating to individuals.
